MOST POPULAR FEATURESTop 50 Pokémon of All Time
Can you believe there are now six generations of Pokémon? Six!! That's a crazy amount of different creatures to collect. But which are the cream of the crop? Don't worry, Magikarp isn't actually one of them.

I am a PS3 owner and someday hope to be a PS4 owner, yet I am not at all dissatisfied with my choice to delay purchase, solely based on the current PS4 library. When I transitioned from a Playstation 1 to a Playstation 2, I was pleasantly surprised that I could for the most part rid myself of my PS1...

Product Description:
Trade Empires is an episodic, economic simulation game about creating
a merchant empire through trade.

Gamers build vast transport and trade networks that change over thousands
of years as new technologies are developed and more modern products
are discovered. The rules of the game are simple; the variety comes
in through the discovery of new products to trade and new ways to transport
those products.

Trade Empires begins at the dawn of human civilization and covers human
history up to the 19th century. The game puts a single human player
in a world evolving in real time. It is the first trading and transporting
simulation to emphasize the effects of technological change over thousands
of years on the relatively simple model of producing and delivering
commodities to make more money than the other players.

All games are episodes. Each episode spans an area during a time period,
such as trade along the Silk Road between the Roman Empire and the Han
Dynasty. With each new episode comes a unique list of available products
and technologies ranging from the silk, bronze and jade idols of Ancient
China to the steam engines, iron plows and rum of the Industrial Revolution.

The time period varies dramatically from one episode to another. Consequently,
time passes at a different rate in each episode. Some episodes cover
a relatively short time period, depicting a historical situation. Other
episodes cover a longer period with more dramatic technological advances.
The longest episodes depict periods over 1,000 years.
